Patek Philippe’s Reference 785 was produced only from 1960 to 1964 in 18K yellow or rose gold. The case was crafted by F. Baumgartner, whilst the design was created in 1959 by the brilliant designer Gilbert Albert, whose unique works are equally sought after by collectors and museums alike. Patek Philippe brought the young Geneva-based jewellery designer Gilbert Albert on board in 1955; the aim of this collaboration was to create a range of unusual and eye-catching watches. Albert was an exceptionally talented artist with a passionate affinity for modern art, such as the works of Brancusi and Mondrian; the unusual and daring cases he created for Patek Philippe continue to fascinate the viewer today just as much as they did on the day of their creation.

The earliest wristwatch split-seconds chronograph was produced by Patek Philippe as a one-off in 1923, with series production commencing in 1927. Based on its reference number, this Audemars Piguet chronograph was manufactured between 1926 and 1929, making it one of the earliest wristwatch split-seconds chronographs. In some cases, pocket watches were modified to create early chronographs. This is likely a one-off piece made to a customer’s specification with a modified case.
